4411. It was narrated that 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Muḥairīz said: "We asked Faḍālah bin 'Ubaid about hanging the thief's hand around his neck – is it Sunnah? He said: 'A thief was brought to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and his hand was cut off, then he ordered that it be hung around his neck.'" (Da'if)

Arabic text

4411 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مُحَيْرِيزٍ، قَالَ: سَأَلْنَا فَضَالَةَ بْنَ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ تَعْلِيقِ الْيَدِ فِي الْعُنُقِ لِلسَّارِقِ، أَمِنَ السُّنَّةِ هُوَ؟ قَالَ: " أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِسَارِقٍ، فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهُ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهَا، فَعُلِّقَتْ فِي عُنُقِهِ
